📚 HOW TO SET A STOP LOSS LIKE A PROFESSIONAL
Most traders set SL wrong. Here's the right way. 👇
❌ WRONG WAY — What most traders do:
"I'll risk $50 so my SL is $50 below entry."
→ Random. Based on money, not structure.
→ Gets hit by normal price movement constantly.
→ You're basically donating to smart money.
✅ RIGHT WAY — What professionals do:
SL goes at the point where your trade idea is INVALID.
For a Long trade:
→ SL goes just below the liquidity sweep low
→ Or just below the OB you entered from
→ That level being broken = trade is wrong. Exit.
For a Short trade:
→ SL goes just above the liquidity sweep high
→ Or just above the OB you entered from
→ That level being broken = trade is wrong. Exit.
📌 THE 3 RULES FOR SL PLACEMENT:
Rule 1: SL must be at STRUCTURAL invalidation
Rule 2: SL must be BEYOND the liquidity sweep (not inside it)
Rule 3: Never move SL further away to "give it more room"
📌 THEN — calculate position size based on that SL distance.
Not the other way around.
Example:
Entry: $2.92 (SUI)
SL: $2.73 (below sweep)
SL distance: $0.19
Account: $1,000 | Risk: 1% = $10
Position size: $10 ÷ $0.19 = 52.6 SUI
